According to The Death and Return of Superman comics, the superhero is indeed killed by Doomsday in an epic battle, which is similar to what happens at the end of Batman v Superman.

In the comics, though, four other “Superman” types spring up in place of the real Man of Steel, all wearing red capes, so when Supes does finally reappear, he wears the black suit with the “S” emblem.

It looks like Cavill is letting us know things are on track. The comics resurrect him, and Cavill’s name is part of the Justice League cast list, so yeah, Superman should return. The movie hits theaters Nov. 17, 2017… watch the trailer!
